PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Don't take your eyes off your Cisco Meraki endpoints

Powerful. Reliable. Scalable. Secure. When it comes to cloud-managed enterprise IT solutions, Cisco Meraki is hard to beat. But that doesn’t mean you can set it and forget it.

Disruptions, bottlenecks, and other issues can still arise. Plus, you’ll want to plan ahead and make sure you’re not overloading your equipment (or paying for more than you actually need). Paessler PRTG’s real-time, round-the-clock cloud monitoring tool makes the process simple and straightforward.

As an official Cisco Meraki technology partner, we have the inside track into how these products work, and can design monitoring tools that integrate seamlessly into your workflow with minimal impact on performance.

Even better, PRTG doesn’t just monitor Cisco Meraki network components, but your entire IT infrastructure. Which means you’ll have a single, unified view of your network’s topology, health, and performance, and can optimize resources and carry out capacity planning with confidence.

4 reasons why to choose PRTG as your Cisco Meraki monitoring tool

configuration

Effortless setup

Key in an IP address range, and the automatic network discovery will take care of everything – finding Cisco Meraki and other network hardware and software, and assigning the right sensors. You don’t even need to install specialized software agents (though you can use PRTG as an agent-based monitor if you want to).

maps

All-in-one monitoring

Why waste time switching between environments when you can keep an eye on your entire IT infrastructure with one monitoring tool? PRTG's preconfigured sensors can track every parameter imaginable. And if you can’t find a preconfigured sensor to suit, you can create your own.

alarm

Instant alerts

Make unplanned downtime a thing of the past. PRTG keeps a close eye on all your critical Cisco Meraki security, health, and performance stats (and the security, health, and performance stats of the rest of your network) round the clock and alerts you as soon as there are issues, so you can perform troubleshooting quickly, optimize performance, and maximize uptime.

adapt

Complete customization

Your IT infrastructure, your rules. PRTG is designed to work out of the box, with minimal tweaking. But you can tailor it to suit your exact requirements. Pick your preferred performance thresholds, configure your monitoring dashboards... you can even design your own reporting templates.

Explore our preconfigured PRTG sensors for Cisco Meraki monitoring

PRTG comes with more than 250 native sensor types for monitoring your entire on-premises, cloud, and hybrid cloud environment out of the box. Check out some examples below!

Cisco WLC Access Point Overview

The Cisco WLC Access Point Overview sensor monitors the operational status of a wireless LAN controller (WLC) access point and provides a sum of various network utilization metrics of the available slots. It can show the following:

  • Admin status
  • Number of clients
  • Number of clients with a poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
  • Operational status
  • Total percentage of transmit, receive, and channel utilization across all slots in the access point

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

“PRTG helps us to keep control of our IT by making issues visible immediately – and everywhere. We always have an eye on the performance and availability of our IT and can react in time if any failures occur. On a long-term perspective, the monitoring data helps us with capacity planning so that we can deliver the required resources for our own systems as well as for our customers, without wasting money on unwarranted redundancies.”

Stein Erik Høybakk, Senior Network Engineer
TAFJORD

“All our production and business processes depend on SAP. But, of course, IT and production systems also play a crucial role in securing these processes. By incorporating SAP, production, and IT into one centralized monitoring system, we can quickly detect critical drops in performance and identify the causes of these issues. In fact, thanks to PRTG and itesys, this couldn’t be any easier.”

Andreas Schmidt, Senior Systems Engineer
Truma

“Any downtime could be detrimental to our customers. We also strive to provide the best possible service to our customers. PRTG allows us to see the health and performance of the network. Using these measurements we can make decisions on how to repair a piece of equipment before it fails and causes a service interruption.”

Cisco Meraki Monitoring: FAQ

 

What is Cisco Meraki?

Cisco Meraki is a cloud-managed IT solutions provider that offers a range of networking and security products designed to simplify the management of complex IT environments. Meraki's solutions are particularly known for their ease of deployment and use, providing centralized management through a web-based dashboard or mobile app.

What's PRTG Cisco Meraki monitoring?

PRTG is a proprietary software tool that tracks the health and performance of Cisco Meraki cloud, hardware, and software network components – and that of your entire IT infrastructure – from one monitoring environment. Available for Windows-based on-premises servers or as a cloud-hosted solution, it's capable of monitoring unlimited local, remote, and virtual network devices, bringing critical system data together in one simple, intuitive interface you can access from anywhere: at the office, at home, or on the go.

Why should I monitor Cisco Meraki infrastructure?

Three reasons. To spot and fix performance issues, prevent unplanned downtime, and carry out more effective capacity planning. PRTG keeps a close eye on all the variables that could impact your Cisco Meraki devices and software, giving you complete visibility and enabling you to be proactive.

How does PRTG monitor Cisco Meraki infrastructure?

PRTG's preconfigured sensors connect to Cisco Meraki's dashboard API. Enable API access on your Cisco Meraki dashboard and add your credentials into PRTG's device settings. You can then start adding Cisco Meraki sensors to your monitoring environment.

What is a sensor in PRTG?

In PRTG, “sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, for example the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, or the free space on a disk drive. On average, you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.

We asked: would you recommend PRTG? Over 95% of our customers say yes!

Paessler conducted trials in over 600 IT departments worldwide to tune its network monitoring software closer to the needs of sysadmins. The result of the survey: over 95% of the participants would recommend PRTG – or already have.
